Years of conversation fill a ton of digital pages, and we've kept all of it accessible to browse or copy over. Whether you're looking for reveal articles for older champions, or the first time that Rammus rolled into an "OK" thread, or anything in between, you can find it here. When you're finished, check out the boards to join in the latest League of Legends discussions.

For a support he does not have anywhere near the kind of dmg that most have the potential to have, and his utility puts him in risky places, his good team utility skill only works for allies, his poke is rather low, compared to say lulu or sona who have extremely high dmg and annoying, auto attack pokes along with reliable harass, Thresh harass means that he HAS to displace the enemy no matter what, and well thats all well and good but that can lead to some really unwanted scenarios especially since it is a form of cc so all his skills have long CD. Thresh is a great champion but they need to work on him beyond his AMAZING kit, I love this guy, BUT I want the versatility that they promised, they said he can fill almost any roll and right now he can really only fit the tank bot roll with mediocre support. I say if his Q's passive scales off his total AD, then so should his kit, some AD scaling could make for some interesting things, then that would leave his passive kinda out in the dust.

NOT TRUE! well kinda true, if you build her right she can, but still she does less dmg than most people, but she is a pure tank, also she isnt really that strong at all, as a support she can be easily out done, as a tank she can be out done too, the game is so damage oriented that not having reliable dmg output puts you behind, either that or you have really good defense scaling, and thresh has to rely on souls and his ability to actually grab them it puts him down as a tank. Thresh can be good but you have to be at 200% focus and even still any other support can outplay him with less than half the effort.

With champs like Leona, Blitz, and Nautilus on the table, there really isn't a reason to pick thresh over any of them, other than his unique and fun kit. I mean his Pull has a base damage of 200 with i believe .5 scaling. Blitzs has a 300 base damage, with a 1.0 scaling and COMPLETELY pulls the enemy in. Nautilus's has a 240 base damage with .75 scaling. So why is thresh's so horribly low? Then thresh's E is 205 base damage with 0.4 scaling. again, super low compared to blitz's popup with doubles his ad, and combined with sheen/manamune it hits even harder. I just feel like Thresh's only use right now is his CC, but if you want cc, i feel like the 3 others mentioned in this thread do it a lot better.
